TMI poop pics - MSPI?
So my daughter is 7w tomorrow and something has just been off. She cries and screams in the evening and is particularly uncomfortable during her early morning wakeup & she cries/struggles to poop more often than not.
I noticed some mucus in her poops and the most recent one today might have dark specks, but nothing that's obvious blood.
Anyone have a little one with MSPI or similar poops?

- Hi! You should bring it to the doctors office to get tested. My two older sons had microscopic blood in their stool/MSPI and their poops looked almost exactly like this.
- mPosted 09-02-22This looks very common for a cows milk protein allergy/intolerance. My sons looked like this before he was diagnosed at 4 weeks

I will get her an appt (if I can sooner than the 15th for her 2 month). There's a culmination of symptoms making me wonder... No obvious blood but not sure if the specks could indicate that or not.Advertisement | page continues below

It's rough but I'm trying to make sure I'm not causing her discomfort & it seems likely to be the issue. Winning the bad luck lottery (again... I was dx'ed as glucose intolerant during pregnancy this time and was on the GD diet).

I'm EBF right now but I did supplement with my first daughter for a while due to other issues. Hopefully it's normal for your little one!
